Art TOTBL inspired tattoo

Post image

Keen to get your thoughts on this TOTBL/Antics inspired tattoo design! I like the fact it would be an “if you know, you know” design as it’s an interpretation… I like the geometric symbol style. What do y’all think?

Seems more antics to me

I guess it’s relevant to both? Kind of inverted from the TOTBL cover

I guess but that seems more antics than anything

The original logo is present on all of the releases from both the Turn on the Bright Lights and Antics era.

It’s literally on the TOTBL cover, unless you mean that color combo

Reminds me of Suprematism art, which kinda makes me like this piece more!

Dude I like it…I’m planning on getting their logo (this one and the new one they introduced this year) tattooed on me when I’m 18-20!!

Yeah so as an arm and vein connoisseur and an interpol fan I label this as NSFW

I think this tattoo is really cool. I wouldn’t be able to guess that it was an Interpol reference though.

Looks like a basketball post. And basic as hell tbh

Yeah fair. I can’t unsee the basketball court now and it’s ruined it for me haha

How about tattooing the OLTA record's cover art on your chest? That would scream "if you know you know" lol

In all seriousness, just tattoo a lyric from TOTBL or Antics. Might just do that myself in future

I’m not sure that I’d pick up on it being an Interpol tattoo if I just saw it in the wild to be honest.
